JOHNS—A second major phase In the current remodelingexpansion program at Clinton National Bank reached completion this week with the opening of the customer loan office in the former Consumers Power location on Walker St. in St. Johns. The new offices, which were opened Monday morning, will allow expanded loan service and offers customers the convenience of two outside entrances along With a third access through the main banking area. The outside entrances are located on Walker St. and at the south end of the Clinton National Bank parking lot. The latter also allows customer access to other areas of the bank building. The new office houses the complete loan operation of the bank and features individual areas for loan officers to discuss transactions in privacy with bank customers. Loan secretary-tellers will assist officers and customers in completing transactions, applications or loan payments and the former loan teller windows in the main lobby of the bank will be no longer in use. ACCORDING TO senior loan officer Paul Schueller, anyone desiring information or consideration on a loan will be directed to the new quarters. The opening of the enlarged department follows completion of the bank's drive-in and parking lot which was put into service late last fall. The location of the loan service area was coordinated with the parking area to facilitate custtjpie|r;;a(ccess to the bank and both phases are part of an extended expansion program slated for completion later this year.

Wings d u m p Hastings twice • • • • • • • • • Sports HASTINGS—Two double-plays Jn the early innings of the first game and the swlft-footedness of Larry Wakefield in the second game resulted in St. Johns gaining a double header victory over Hastings Saturday. The two victories boosted the Redwings1 league record to 3-5 and their season's mark to 4-6. Pitcfler Jim Schumaker picked up the first victory throwing six strike outs and two walks for a filial score of 3-2. The loss was taken by Carl Norris who went the distance. The two double plays early in the first game cut off any opportunity for Hastings to score. The Wings had the bases loaded in the fourth with two outs when Bob Elliott, who hit a ground ball combined with an error, drove in two runs. Next Jim Schumaker on a squeeze bunt drove in Jim Harte from third for the winning run. Redwings getting hits were Rod Pasch (2), Larry Hayes (1), Jim Harte (1), Tom Rasdale (1) and Jim Schumaker (1). The second game was scoreless for Hastings. The Wings grabbed the lead early i n the first inning when Wakefield singled and stole second and made the winning run from second after Ballinger singled. IN THE FOURTH inning, Elliott tripled with Ballinger and Harte on base and drove in the final two runs, for a winning score of 3-0. Lewis did the pitching with Wakefield catching. Those getting hits were Pasch (1), Wakefield (1), Ballinger (1), Elliott (1) and Lewis (1). According to Bob Kramer, Redwings statistician, the two g a m e s were good defensive games and well played as can be evidenced by the low number of errors and close scores. ST.

Boyce: big man in Spartan lineup EAST LANSING—His teammates call him "pygmy," but what Michigan State's Gary Boyce lacks in size he makes up for with determination and solid ability. The 5-7, 170-pound senior from St. Johns is one of the prime reasons that the Spartans 'are enjoying one of their finest baseball seasons in many years. Gary packs a lot of power in his small frame as evidenced by his 10 career home runs in three years of varsity competition. But admittedly, Gary doesn't go for the home run. "My job as the lead-off hitter is to get on base anyway I can. With the kind of strong hitters coming up behind me, that's the important thing." Spartan c o a c h Danny Litwhiler agrees. "Gary's tough to pitch to and he has a very good eye for bad pitches," he says, "When he gets on base we'll usually get him in." WITH EXCELLENT speed, it's not too uncommon to see Gary, make some" sensational catches at his leftfield position. He gets a good jump on the ball and has the facility to judge how far he has got to go to catch it. Gary carried a overall average of .337 into this season and through the Spartans' first 32 games, he is hitting a lusty .378. He has moved into second place for the most career hits with 130 onlv two hAhlnrt AiiAmerican John Biedenbach's 132 set in 1964 through 1966, He has a l r e a d y eclipsed Chuck Mathews' four year career mark of most runs (87) with 88 in three seasons. Gary and his teamma'tes are pointing towards the Spartans' first Big Ten championship since 1954. And you can be sure Gary will be doing his very large part to reach that goal.

Homebound program reaches out ST. JOHNS—The C l i n t o n County Homebound and Hospitalized teaching p r o g r a m has reached more than 500 students in the nine years that it has operated, said Mrs. Mildred Pocuis, the county's homebound teacher. The program is one of the many special education services o f f e r e d by the Intermediate School D i s t r i c t to county students. Students who are physically unable to attend school are eligible for this program. Mrs. Pocuis teaches on the average of 12 students a week either at their home or in one of the s u r r o u n d i n g hospitals. Her schedule varies from day today. She obtains assignments from the teachers each day and assists the students in any way she can so that they can maintain the receives from two to four hours of instruction a week. "It's gratifying for me to work with these students. They all appreciate the help. Many of them develop new interests and become very motivated.'' she said. A problem that has occurred is that some of the students like to stay home. That's why she won't go into a home without a doctor's written statement,, Last year Mrs. Pocuis worked With 70 students. She anticipates even more this year. same level as the other students in school. Sometimes its just a matter of letting a student know that someone cares. "It takes a tremendous amount of cooperation on the' part of the teachers, students and the parents to make this a workable program," she said. "One of the most noticeable aspects of the program," she said, "is that it helps develop good independent workers. It gives the students an opportunity to work on their own.

William Johns, board member, questioned the availability of the supervisor for a person on a day shift where King is leaving his office at 2:30 p.m. Another boardmember, Herbert Hardtke, said that the Job of supervisor was a full time Job. Speaking as a property owner rather than as a police chief, Bruce Angell said: "Anything after 5 p.m. is a man's own time, but a supervisor should be available from 8. a.m. to 5 p.m. In an i n t e r v i e w after the meeting, King said that he plans to go to the management at Olds to ask for a change in hours.

I ^^r APPLES Bananas . . STEW Gangste Two board positions on June school ballot ST. JOHNS—Voters of the St. Johns School District will elect two board members at the annual election on Monday, June 14. The terms of members Alden • Livingston and Leon Schumaker expire on June 30. Nomination petitions for Livingston's r e . election have been filed in the district business office. Schumaker has not yet d e c i d e d whether or not to seek another term. Anyone desiring to become a candidate can obtain nomination petitions in the business office located in the high school. Candidates must have at least 20 signatures to h a v e their name placed on the ballot. AJ1 petitions must be returned to the business office by 4 p.m. on Monday, May 17. District voters will also vote on school tax millage on the same date. The Board has not yet decided what millage will be on the ballot. This decision will be made at the regular meeting of the Board on Wednesday, May 12. The Board is faced with many unanswered questions in trying to decide the amount of millage. First, it is not known what can be expected from state aid. Another question unanswered now Is how much money the County Allocation. Board will award to schools. The d e a d l i n e for voter r e g istration is 5 p.m. on May 14. People who live in the city should r e g i s t e r with the city clerk. Those outside the city should register with t h e i r township clerk. Neither is it known at this time what the salaries of teache r s and other school employees will be for the next-school year. Paced with these uncertainties, the Board will recommend a millage which they feel will be honest and realistic, and which it is hoped will not make it necessary to curtail the program for children. 4-H celebrity: KathyNichols ALL REGISTERED voters may v o t e in the election. Property ownership is not necessary. In regard to 18 year olds voting, if 38 states ratify the amendment by election day on June 14, they may vote if they a r e registered by 5 p.m. on May 14.

The first essay, entitled '"Pollution," was submitted by Debbie Anderson, a seventh grader. The second, "Our Polluted Environment," was written by Pat Airens, an eighth grader. POLLUTION AIR POLLUTION Air i s what we need to breath. However, it i s getting h a r d to breath because of the smoke In the air and It doesn't smell good at all. Pollution is not nice to see and it i s not healthy. Sulfur dioxide identified as a culprit in the increasing incl- 1 dence of lung diseases i s one of the most noxious substances in New York City's air. It i s believed that New York City has more polluted air than Los Angeles, They have shut down some of the factories until they do something about the smoke in New York City. A day in New York City or Los Angeles is polluted so thick that one's breath comes short. If a window has just been painted it will be coated with cinders in one day. Pollution cracks the paint on houses, eats away at stone, tarnishes copper, and cracks rubber tires. Houses and clothes mustbe cleaned more' often. Some things that cause pollution are burning trash, garbage, and leaves. The factories and industrial chimneys cause pollution. Your home furnaces and your automobiles also cause pollution. Cooking outside causes pollution of the air. Do not burn paper dishes, cups, and refuse in charcoal burners. WATER IS IMPORTANT to us because we need it to drink, but soon we'll have no water because of all that junk they pour into the water. Even the fish are dying. Some people even throw paper, food, candy, cans and, pop bottles' into the water Just for kicks. All of that pollutes the water. The Great Lakes a r e one example of a nationwide water pollution problem that i s affecting t h o u s a n d s of lakes, rivers, s t r e a m s , and coastal waters. Lake Erie i s dying already b e cause of the sewage that comes from the towns and cities. Industry pours its wastes, o r ganic ' and inorganic, irito the water daily such as: oil, salts, wood pulp, metal filings, coal dust, and dangerous chemicals. If someone doesn't do anything about water pollution there won't be any water left to drink or go swimming in. LAND POLLUTION The trash pile is growing faster than the population. Today, the average A m e r i c a n tosses out more than five pounds of.trash a day- Trash and garbage a r e very ugly to see and a r e unhealthy to everyone. When dumps stand open they become a breeding g r o u n d for r a t s , mice, roaches, flies, and other vermin. So use the waste basket instead of the ground. Let's get pollution before it gets u s .

London, which i s known for its fogs is an unsafe place for humans to live. It has caused the death of many elderly people, and those with respiratory ailments. Air pollution makes people depressed when they see this instead of the deep blue sky. In Boston, air pollution i s eroding away some of t h i s city's a r t works. Since air pollution has become greater, there are many more cases of asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema. These a r e just a few disadvantages pollution has caused. There a r e many ways man i s trying to prevent air pollution. Some factories are using electrostatic precipitators to reduce the amount of ash coming from the smokestacks. The Air Quality Act of 1967 asked cooperation between the government and the factories. Do you still remember Earth Day? This took place on April 22,1970.

The cost of medical care for hospitalized b u r n victims is measurable, b u t no one can measure the cost of pain and suffering or the tragic loss of life in dollars and cents. THE DEPARTMENTS of Commerce and of Health Education and Welfare are beginning to collect some statistics on flammablllty accidents. In a one year study, one report indicates a total of 670 cases of Injuries and deaths associated with the flammablllty of clothing. The accidents happened for a variety of reasons but they could be placed in nine categories of which the first five were particularly important. These categories are: 1) Flammable l i q u i d s in explosion including s t o v e s ; 2) H e a t e r s , stoves, furnaces and open fireplaces; 3) Burning trash and bonfires; 4) Matches and cigarette lighters; 5) Cigarettes, smoking; 6) Fireworks; 7) unknown: 8) Caught in burning building; 9) Miscellaneous. It's not a question of who gets burned and how, but why they were burned. If the records of the 670 accidents indicate that one percent were the result of some deliberate act, and three percent are unknown and.another three percent related to those caught in burning buildings and involving clothing incidentally, then the remaining 93 percent Includes accidents which may have been prevented if the people did not stand too close to an open fire or lean over a stove, or back into an electric heater, or if children were taught not to play with matches or cigarette, lighters. Yes we cannot blame clothing fires on one segment of society alone. To prevent such tragedies, t h e r e m u s t be cooperation between the public, the Government and industry.

" A s a general r u l e , " observes DNA Forest F i r e Chief Robert J. Compeau, " m o r e than 50percent of this state's annual forest fire losses a r e suffered by the end of May because of the combination of conditions which are now developing in our northern areas." "Naturally, " h e continues, "we hope to make a big improvement on that standing record this spring, but it's going to take the all-out cooperation of everyr one." . I n ' a n e f f o r t to k e e p this spring's fire losses below last year, Compeau reminds landowners and outdoor seekers of several stronger safeguards in Michigan's forest fire law which took effect in 1970. One of those changes requires debris burners in forest and grassland areas to obtain burn-1 ing permits unless their containers meet new safety specifications.

The permits are available free at field offices of DNR fire officers statewide and at local fire department stations in southern Michigan. MRS.

Back on January 1, 1971,the Department oi Transportation announced that farm trucks wouid virtually come under the regul a t i o n s of the Interstate Commerce Commission. I t would have meant farm truck drivers •would have to be at least twentyone years old, and pass physical and written examinations and road tests before they could legally drive. It doesn't take long to figure out the kind of predicament this would put farmers in, since most farm trucks a r e operated by the farmers* sons, or employees who, in many cases, a r e not twenty-one years, old. Farm Bureau requested and received a six-month delay on the new regulations until testimony could be presented to show why farm trucks should continue to be exempt from the ICC rules. WITH THE AID of Senator Allen Ellender, it appears as though an agricultural exempt i o n from the rules might be possible. Farm Bureau's legislative directors in Washington s a y t h a t the Department of Transportation i s not ye,t convinced that there should be no delivery restrictions to the first point of sale. On the other point, it was reported, the only argument against young drivers was the contention that young automobile drivers have a poorer safety record. In comparison, data proves the safety record of farm truck drivers is dramatically better than that of non-farm drivers. Farmers a n d c o n c e r n e d parties can help persuade the Department of Transportation to allow delivery to the first point of sale, regardless of truck size, by writing to the Secretary ,af Transportation, John A.

OPINION It was John Steinbeck's opening and graphic description of the great dust bowl in Texas and Oklahoma that brought America's attention to the tragic pattern of desolation that periodically sweeps the Middle South and Midwest. In 20-year cycles, dust bowls of varying magnitudes have ravaged the farming belts of the Texas and OklahomaPanhandles. This appears to be another period in that 20-year cycle. In many areas of those two states, rain has not fallen for almost a year and the strong winds are starting to carry away the precious little topsoil that remains. It could develop into another 30's-type tragedy, just what our farm economy didn't need in this year of financial misery. Amidst the gala lights and center-stage political promotlonalism, or for want of abetter t e r m , propaganda, President Nixon has tried to create the aura of the Farmers' Champion with a special salute to agriculture day at the White House last week. ' There were displays of modern farm machinery spread across the White House lawn for newsmen and various manufacturers— a mini-trade show, in so many words. There was a huge banquet featuring country-boy singing whiz Glenn Campbell, complete with downhome jokes and a kiss for the First Lady, But the poor dudes in Texas and Oklahoma, fighting for simple survival, couldn't expect to be too enthusiastic about the whole show. Watching their land blow away, or waiting for It to happen again, wouldn't make them too responsive to glamorous speech making. In many areas, farmers are selling their stock at buyers' prices In the northern Midwest, rather than watch the animals die of starvation. Some still cling to that land in hopes of rain, taking the chance that by August all could be lost. It appears that with each succeeding administration, national leaders tune out the domestic cries for help. But it is much worse this time. Not only are the young crying out for reform, now they are joined by the "Establishment* f a r m e r s and blue collar workers across the country. The Silent Majority, so long endeared to the President, could prove his undoing, if he continues in this lack of domestic economic response. We hear reports coming from Washington that l e a d e r s are i smiling again because the unemployment rate has dropped by one-tenth of a percent to afigure of about 6,5 per cent. The only trouble is the rate should be below four per cent. In Michigan, we have a rate of more than eight per cent, tolerable for a short time at best. It is clear that the socalled "induced recession* is getting out ofhand. With the dollar being devalued abroad, inflation rising , farmers, youth and workers shouting for aid, we could be approaching a point of no return. In time like these, with the problems and anguish of millions of citizens, it is not unreasonable to question the administration's sincerity, while parties and gala banquets take precedence over action. There is a growing sentiment that this nation has survived so long with all the problems and crises—not because of its leaders, but in spite of them. 'IF IT FIT2 . . .' Suffering on the railroad By JIM FITZGERALD Goofy Americans, Middle-aged and older, are currently suffering terrible fits of choo-choo nostalgia. They quit riding trains years ago, because they liked cars and planes better. But now the populace is upset because the railroads have despaired of rolling empty seats across the countryside. Daily passenger service is being eliminated or severely" flashed all over the country. And people who rode the train laithfully once every 10 years are wailing and moaning and yearning for the good old days when everyone went down to the depot to meet the 5:10. I remember trains, too. Like a cinder in my eye . . . S o m e t i m e s t in nightmarish flashbacks, it seems like my entire 3-year army career was spent on trains. In 1944, a train took me from home to Chicago, where I was inducted. T h o s e were the glory-days when the high school band and gobs of sobbing relatives showed up at the depot to bid farewell to the brave draftees. I can still see my 2 best friends/^both -4eKV/standings on. the Rlatform>layghingandholding hands with my girl friend, as I chugged out of ihelr lives. I can't see them clearly because the train window was filthy. But the bitterness still comes back clearly. My 2 friends were husky, healthy specimens. I was 6 f e e t tall and weighed 105 and was obviously a poor bet to live until midnight. I never From the State House Delayed tuition By REP. DICK ALLEN What's in a name? A lot, I'll tell you. Two years ago I introduced a bill in Michigan's Legislature that involved a rather dramatic new concept in the area of finance of our colleges and universities. I called it a "Delayed Tuition Plan". However, Action Line in the Detroit Free Press called it a "Degree Tax." The rest of the State's newspapers picked it up and the term "Degree Tax" stuck. Degree Tax! Good GoshI We've got a tax on everything from beer to toothpaste. Now some dumb freshman legislator wants to put a tax on college degrees! Within 10 days I received over 800 letters. Almost ten favored the concept. The rest expressed reactions from mild disagreement to in depth discussions of my likely fitness for office. The basic precepts behind my plan were two-fold. First, that the logical people to pay the lion's share of the operational costs of colleges and universities arethose that benefit most, the students. Second, that the best time for them to pay these costs is when they are most able, after graduation when they have high incomes. Now, two y e a r s after my fiasco attempt, I find plans similar to mine springing up a r o u n d the c o u n t r y . The Governor of Ohio has proposed GIVE THE GIFT OF LIFE RED CROSS BLOOD PROGRAM one; Yale University has one already l.i effect. My original plan was crude in some ways and probably did not deserve to pass. However, the problems it was designed to alleviate are, if anything, growing worse. A c o n s t a n t l y growing percentage of our high school students seek advanced educational opportunity. Of those that go on, an increasing number continue past the bachelor's degree to more expensive advanced study. Our expenses, therefore, are increasing and will continue to increase if we are to meet the e d u c a t i o n a l and vocational training needs of our young in an increasingly complex technological society. It does not appear these dollars can come from the normal State tax sources. We are in the proce s s of t r y i n g to p r o v i d e a dramatic Increase in the financial support of public grade and high schools. The people want and deserve property tax relief as a first priority in the use of increased State taxes. Students are even less able to pay increased costs than the State, Good paying jobs are not available. Young people should not be dependent on their parents for huge sums. Some cannot provide it. In cases where they can, it creates the kind of dependency antagonism that is the source of much frustration on the part of both young peopleandparents. So you'll soon hear of another Allen plan for college finance. This time I think it will be called a Delayed Tuition Plan rather t h a n a D e g r e e Tax, Three reasons: It's a concept whose time lias now arrived. It will be a better, m o r e refined plan, Allen is smarter now and will have bettei* control of the publicity process. did understand how come I was on that miserable train and they stayed home. Come -to think, maybe they weren'tholdinghands with my girl. Maybe they were holding hands with each other. That window was really dirty... IN FRANCE, I WAS transported to the front lines in a 40 & 8 left over from. World War I, That's a freight car, built in 1900, capable" of carrying 40 men and 8 horses. The men must be midgets and t h e horses must be rocking. There is no better way to get to know your fellow man intimately. I sat on the floor between two fat guys who didn't know I was there for the first two days, until I got sick and learned another use for my steel helmet. It took that French train 3 days to go 200 miles. We kept getting shunted off onto sidings to let higher-priority trains go through. They probably contained generals and Red Cross girls on their way home for more doughnuts. ' One of the layovers was in Paris, and I still brag to my kids that I spent a night in GayParee, Even though we weren't allowed any farther from the train than the nearest bush (nobody worried about pollution in those days). A year later, with the war over, I was back in the U.S. where my first assignment was riding shotgun on a prisoner train. I stood in the passageway between cars, with a carbine strapped over my shoulder, and prayed to God that the incredible shaking . and bumping didn't make the stupid gun.go off. I wasn't afraid of the noise or the bullet. I just didn't want to have to clean the gun because I still hadn'tlearned how to take it apart. Officers kept telling me my gun was my best friend but then they'd tell me to strip my weapon and that seemed like a vulgar way to treat a good friend. So I never did.ANYWAY, SEATED Inside the cars were German prisoners of war on their way to catch a boat home. My job was to make sure none of them jumped off . in Cincinnati and went on welfare. Trouble came when I jumped off myself to buy a beer in Philadelphia. The train was supposed to layover for 5 minutes but a conductor blew a fuse and it pulled out early. And there I was, with my carbine, guarding the depot bar overnight. That was my last out-of-town assignment. Soom I was sent home for good, in a brilliantly decorated, brand new uniform with which to dazzle my family and 4-F friends. Except the trip was made in a sweaty, 80-year-old Pullman that sucked in soot like a vacuum, cleaner. When I arrived at the home depot, my father said: "If your side won the war, I'd hate to see thB losers.* Onward and Upward but not by train, thanks.

The longer a person travels' with Jesus the Master, the more a person studies the life of that carpenter from Nazareth, the more difficult it will be for that person to see anything but the Almigtty and the all-loving God Himself. Are you like Philip? Do you have a questioning mind? Do you continually search for God in your life? Then look to Jesus, The late Archbishop of Canterbury, William Temple, once said, "The central fundamental affirmation of the Christian r e ligion is that Jesus of Nazareth i s the unique, finai manifestation of God," That is what Philip d i s covered, because he was not ashamed to put his question to Jesus, Philip the disciple—a man with a missionary instinct, a man with a warn heart, but a pessimistic head, a man who disliked r e sponsibility, and a man with a questioning mind. A man like us in many respects? Pewnmo By Mrs Irene Fox A communion dinner was held' honoring their daughter, Terese Simon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Simon.
